Uniden ATLANTIS 275 English Owners Manual - Page 8

xx Emergency CH16/ CH9 Mode WATERPROOF SPECIFICATIONS The Atlantis 275 is a submersible radio, complying with floating IPX8 water-resistant standards. The radio can be submerged in 1.5 meter of water for 30 minutes without damage. CAUTION! The radio will only meet this rating if fully assembled and all rubber seals are well maintained and correctly fitted. This means that the speaker mic cover must be securely fastened. After your radio is submerged in water, you might notice that the sound is distorted. This is because there is still water remaining in and around the speaker and microphone. Just shake the radio to clear excess water, and the sound should return to normal. If your radio is exposured to salt water, clean it thoroughly with fresh water and dry it before turning it on. The Atlantis 275 has a special tone that will vibrate the speaker to remove water inside the casing (see page E-18). The charger is not waterproof. E-2 Uniden Atlantis 275 Radio Owner's Manual
